Answer:
a) 39.6 m/s b) 4123 N
Explanation:
a) At the top of the loop, all of the forces point downwards (force of gravity and normal force).
Fnet=ma
ma=m(v^2/R) (centripetal acceleration)
mg=m(v^2/R)
m cancels out (this is why pilot feels weightless) so,
g=(v^2/R)
9.8 m/s^2 = v^2/160 m
v^2=1568 m^2/s^2
v=39.6 m/s
b) At the bottom of the loop, the normal force and the force of gravity point in opposite directions. The normal force is the weight felt.
Convert 300 km/hr to m/s
300 km/hr=83.3 m/s
Convert pilot's weight into mass:
760 N = 77.55 kg
Fnet=ma
n-mg=m(v^2/R)
n=(77.55 kg)(((83.3 m/s)^2)/160 m)+(77.55 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)
n=3363.2 N+760 N=4123 N

<h3><u>Answer</u>;</h3>
1600 years
<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>
- Half life is the time taken for a radioactive isotope to decay by half of its original amount.
- We can use the formula; N = O × (1/2)^n ; where N is the new mass, O is the original amount and n is the number of half lives.
- A sample of radium-226 takes 3200 years to decay to 1/4 of its original amount.
Therefore;
<em>1/4 = 1 × (1/2)^n</em>
<em>1/4 = (1/2)^n </em>
<em>n = 2 </em>
Thus; <em>3200 years is equivalent to 2 half lives.</em>
<em>Hence, the half life of radium-226 is 1600 years</em>
Answer:
Option B. O because the net force was 5 N in Alfredo's direction
Explanation:
To know the the correct answer to the question given above, we shall determine the net force acting on the bat. This can be obtained as follow:
Force of pull by Mason (Fₘ) = 15 N
Force of pull by Alfredo (Fₐ) = 20 N
Net force (Fₙ) =?
Fₙ = 20 – 15
Fₙ = 5 N in Alfredo's direction
From the calculation made above, we can see that the net force is 5N in Alfredo's direction. This is the reason why Alfredo end up having the bat.
The hotter molecules become, the faster they move around. The colder they are, the more slow and lethargic they are
